Wordless Wednesday: Mite Mania!!

Well...there is no better way to say this then...Rookie's demodex is back. He got scraped last week and they are EVERYWHERE :(. I am speechless...

He is such a great trooper at the vet.
Empty water bottles make great rewards at the vet's office :)
He is back on Ivermectin and we are exploring other treatments as well. This is his fourth year dealing with these damn parasites :(.
